[quote=@Ammokkx]Getting more powerful through raw stats, or compensating your lack of stats by gitting gud, is part of the appeal. If you want games that are focused entirely on your mechanical prowess, well, you're [i]obviously[/i] in the wrong genre.[/quote] Yes, that's what I said. I don't generally enjoy games from that genre or any genre that don't require skill and instead focus on stats for progression. That's why I also couldn't ever get into D&D and am a great fan of dark souls. I am not sure why you felt the need to elaborate on what I said with a huge post. Or to call me mad. It's not like I said it was wrong to like these things. Just stated that I don't. Again, I feel the same way about D&D and most other stat systems. Millions of people enjoy those but to me they just suck the life and fun right out of roleplaying by reducing it from a creative writing thing to a mechanical dice game. Nothing wrong with those that do enjoy it. But I don't.
